What will be much more damaging Ins the abolishing of the “home studio” rule, meaning that no longer will radio stations be mandated to have a local broadcast presence to maintain the license. You will see the Giants like IHeart and others to close up local programming and just go with their syndicated programming. Much cheaper than hiring local tale t. Any university which continues to offer an R & T degree is stealing money from the student. Period.

If I wanted to listen to music industry central that's already available over the internet. What interests me is the local talent, the local preference for music, you know, reality rather than just a feed. They want to kill commercial radio as a medium, sounds like. Take away any distinction and any reason to listen to it and the audience will drift away. That's already happened to far too many small-town weekly newspapers that have been bought up and centralized.

As I understand the local office rule, too many small niche stations were being put out of business because they couldn’t afford a local office for the revenue they could generate. With a rule change, if someone can find a way to broadcast German polka, Vietnamese music and a current news show about African politics, under the umbrella of one office, maybe these small listener stations can succeed.
